Hello Sir, How can I get a mentor for my startup for which my roadmap is ready, website ready and it is near launching stage but still I feel need to get a mentor so that we can grow our startup as per plan. Not just looking for investor but a mentor who can guide through the journey to be successful. Although my start up plan is unique and there is no competitor in the sector with huge growth potential. Please guide how we can select or approach mentor?

Ans: Dear Parbinder, Look for experts in the field - seasoned professionals, successful entrepreneurs etc. Take time from them , discuss your startup idea and request them for their feedback. You can also request one of them to be your mentor.

Dear Sir,I am young and new at the workplace.I have read that mentorship is important for your career.How does one go about finding the right mentor?How does one approach them?Also, if you are approaching a mentor of the opposite sex, how does one ensure that one is not giving the wrong signal?Thank you.Isha

Most good organisations have a formal system of mentorship.

But you don't have to wait to be assigned a mentor. You can approach anyone in the organisation or outside who you consider a role model.

Gender is not a consideration at all as long as your intentions are clear.

All interactions between a mentor and mentee must be open and formal and within the professional sphere.

Approach a mentor formally and keep the interactions documented.

Hi Baqar, Vipin this side. I have decade of experience (customer support) interested to start up..but not knowing how to..have 10k+ linkedin followers that includes ceos of different startups in India...The problem is not having a clear cut plan in execution and here I'am seeking mentorship

Ans: Entrepreneurship is flying the plane as you are making it.. you will never have 100% clarity or resources. Start small and then grow. Customer support management is a good business opportunity. You can start with that, if you have experience in this area.

My son got 99.3% tile in MHT- CET 2025. Will he get CS in COEP. If not , then please tell some other good colleges where he can get CS branch?We are from open EWS category and domicile of maharashtra.

Ans: With a 99.3 percentile in MHT CET 2025, your son has a good chance of getting Computer Science (CS) at COEP, but it's not guaranteed, especially with the increasing competition. If COEP is not possible, other excellent options for CS include VJTI, SPPU, ICT, and PICT. Best of luck. I am always there by the side of the children who need counselling. May GOD bless always.

What should I study after 12th to reasearch about evolution, can a graduate in biomedical engineering can do research about evolution?

Ans: To research about evolution after 12th, you should pursue a BSc in Biology (with a specialization in Ecology and Evolutionary Biology) or a related field like Biotechnology or Zoology. While biomedical engineering can provide a foundation in related areas, it is not the most direct path. A biomedical engineering graduate could potentially contribute to evolutionary research, but it would require additional focused study and research in evolutionary biology. Best of luck.
